Electrical power quoted depends on alternator make. Power and consumption may vary according to set-up conditions. Engines comply with the World Bank guidelines for thermal power plants. The stated consumption figures refer to the above-mentioned ISO reference conditions.The heat rate for Diesel operation refers to fuel oil with a lower caloric value (LHV) of 42,700 kJ/kg. The heat rate for gas operation to a LHV of 28 MJ/Nm3. Ratings are given with a tolerance of +5% and without engine-driven pumps. Figures for gas engines refer to natural gas with a methane number higher than 80. The specific lube oil consumption is specified at MCR with a tolerance of 20%.

7L 51/60DF

L+V51/60DF The reliable one A synonym for the highest output combined with optimum flexibility. The output of this power pack is between 8,560 and 17,550 kWe.
General
The L+V51/60DF engine from MAN Diesel is a dual-fuel engine that converts liquid fuel (Diesel operation) or natural gas into electrical power efficiently and with low emissions. The possibility to switch over seamlessly from gas to Diesel operation and vice versa allows multiple applications with a variety of fuels. In liquid fuel operation, the 51/60DF engine can be operated with HFO with a viscosity of up to 700 mm/s (cSt) at 50 C.
For gas operation, the gaseous fuel must comply with the latest valid MAN Diesel quality requirements. For lower methane numbers, MAN Diesel is prepared to deliver welladapted solutions.

Fuels
The 51/60DF engine is designed for operation with liquid and gaseous fuels. It is designed for fuel qualities specified in CIMAC 003 H/K700/DIN ISO 817. With liquid fuels, continuous HFO operation is possible between 0% and 100% load.

Modern and innovative technology

Stepped piston
Forged, dimensionally stable steel crown (with shaker cooling by oil), made from high-grade materials with skirt in nodular graphite iron. Chromium ceramic coating of the first piston ring with highly resistant ceramic particles in the ring surface, resulting in low wear of ring and liner.

Connecting rod and bearing

Short description of major engine parts All engine parts are designed and constructed with the aim of achieving the highest reliability, ease of maintenance and longest possible TBOs*. The following components are produced at our own factory:
Engine frame
Rigid housing of single-cast monobloc construction, strengthened by tie bolts running from the suspended main bearing through to the top edge of the engine frame and from the cylinder head through to the intermediate bottom.

Optimised marine head design to allow piston overhaul without removal of the connecting rod bearing cap. Specially designed bearing shells in the connecting rod for increased reliability.

Valves
Exhaust gas valves with propellers on the shaft for self-turning effect in the exhaust gas stream and seating in armoured, water-cooled valve seats, resulting in low valve temperatures. The inlet valves are equipped with Rotocap mechanical rotators.

Cylinder head
Combustion chamber geometry optimised for combustion of gas and Diesel / HFO. Atomisation of the injection spray without obstacles for both operating modes promotes very good air-fuel ratio for optimum combustion.

Injection
For operation with liquid fuels, high pressure injection with improved atomisation for combustion of fuel with the lowest, but still acceptable, qualities of HFO. In gas operation, ignition by injection of pilot fuel through a common rail injection system.

Cylinder liner
Thick-walled design isolated from external deformation, resulting in optimum running conditions for the piston.
* TBO = Time Between Overhaul

Rocker arm casing

Weight-reduced design facilitating fast removal for overhaul and service of injection nozzles in gas and Diesel / HFO operation.

During commissioning of the power plant, SaCoS-DF undergoes a factory test together with the engine resulting in short fine-tuning and functional testing.

NOx
As with all MAN Diesel engines, the NOx emissions of the 51/60DF engine are below the World Bank requirements for exhaust emissions. The 51/60DF engine is equipped with variable injection timing for NOx optimisation. In gas mode, the engines emissions are significantly below the allowable World Bank limits for

MAN Diesel turbocharging system

Optimum design of constant pressure turbocharging system with state-ofthe-art MAN Diesel turbochargers of the TCA series featuring long-bearing TBOs. Thorough combustion with very low residues and low thermal stress for the combustion-chamber components, high efficiency at full and partial loads results in substantial air surplus. The very high efficiency of the turbocharger at low pressure ratios results in good part load operation. Both V and inline (L) 51/60DF engines are charged by a single TCA turbocharger with the advantage that only one common exhaust gas pipe is required for all cylinders.

NOx (TA Luft).

Service-friendly design
Hydraulic tools used for tightening and loosening cylinder head nuts; clamps with quick release fasteners and/or clamp and plug connectors; generously sized access covers; hydraulic tools for crankshaft bearings and big end bearings; sleeve spring vibration damper is practically maintenance-free.

To meet most of the stringent NOx limits, we additionally offer SCR technology (Selective Catalytic Reduction) for this engine type.

SaCoS
The 51/60DF engine is equipped with the safety and control system SaCoSDF. SaCoS-DF guarantees reliable engine operation in Diesel and gas mode with an optimum operation range between knocking and misfiring in gas operation. All cylinders are regulated individually. In Diesel mode, control is based on the tried and tested engine management of the MAN Diesel mediumspeed Diesel engines.
